The Department does not collect specific data around the sexual assault of National Health Service staff by patients or associated compensation payments, as this issue is expected to be dealt with locally, in line with the NHS complaints procedure.

The Social Partnership Forum has led a call to action for NHS organisations to eliminate all forms of bullying and harassment as part of creating a healthy, inclusive and compassionate workplace culture. Eradicating sexual harassment will be one of its top priorities in 2019/20.<\/p> <\/p> <\/p> <\/p> <\/p> <\/p> <\/p> <\/p> <\/p> <\/p> <\/p>"}
